Ingredients
- 1 cup sliced raw almonds (or nut of choice)
-
2 Tbsp. Navitas Organics Maca Powder
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
-
1 tsp. Navitas Organics Chia Seeds
- Dash of sea salt
- ¼ cup ground flax
- ½ cup soft pitted dates
- 1½ Tbsp. pure maple syrup, agave or sweetener of choice
- 2 cups shredded coconut
-
2 Tbsp. Navitas Organics Cacao Powder, optional (if making half batch “chocolate lovers”)
Directions
Add almonds, maca powder, vanilla, chia seeds, salt, flax, dates, and maple syrup to a blender or food processor, and pulse until a dough-like consistency is formed.
- Add shredded coconut and pulse again until fully mixed.
- Test dough to make sure it sticks together. If it doesn’t, add some water and pulse again to reach desired texture.
- Using a small scoop, scoop out ball shapes and place on a plate. Flatten slightly, if desired.
If making half mixture chocolate, scoop out all blondie macaroons, then add cacao powder to remaining dough. Pulse until mixed, then scoop out remaining macaroons. Store in fridge.
